Sherdogs epic E3 news and gameplay thread *update starts tommrow*

[GhostZ06]

So gentlemen it's here this year yet again. All news, videos and gameplay...post it here

Side note: From Software parent company Kadokawa is also doing a conference Monday at 9PM Pacific, but sadly it won't be livestreamed as far as we know.

Sunday
EA Play
1PM Pacific / 4PM Eastern / 21:00 BST / 06:00 AEST (Monday)
Watch it: http://www.ea.com/play2016

We should see some Mass Effect Andromeda and Titanfall 2 gameplay at EA's show this year, and we expect something Star Wars related, though it may just be a tease for a far off game.

Bethesda
7PM Pacific / 10PM Eastern / 03:00 BST / 12:00 AEST (Monday)
Watch it: Bethesda on Twitch (may change if Bethesda streams elsewhere)

Expect to see Dishonored 2, of course. The rest is speculation and rumor, butwe're betting on Prey 2, a remastered Skyrim, and maybe Quake.

Monday
Microsoft
9:30AM Pacific / 12:30PM Eastern / 17:30 BST / 02:30 AEST (Tuesday)
Watch it: http://www.xbox.com/e3

Aside from all the Xbox stuff, we can expect to see more of Rare's exciting pirate game, Sea of Thieves, as well as ReCore. Hopefully there's a decent focus on the PC this year, with the caveat that any announcements are likely to be Windows 10 Store exclusives. Microsoft is showing up at the PC Gaming Show, too, which brings us to...

PC Gaming Show
11:30AM Pacific / 2:30PM Eastern / 19:30 BST / 04:30 ACST (Tuesday)
Watch it: Twitch / YouTube

It's our show! Last year we decided it was high time the PC as a platform had a bigger presence during E3 week, so we worked with AMD to put on a show, and this year we've done it again. Expect a bunch of guests from all around PC gaming, and a few surprises. Here's more about the lineup and timing—and tune in early for what should be an exciting contest, too.

Ubisoft
1PM Pacific / 4PM Eastern / 21:00 BST / 06:00 AEST (Tuesday)
Watch it: https://www.ubisoft.com/e3-2016

Ubisoft should be showing us more Watch Dogs 2, For Honor, Ghost Recon: Wildlands, and South Park. Beyond that, we're not sure—there's no new Assassin's Creed this year, but we might see more of the movie, and probably a new game.

Sony
6PM Pacific / 9PM Eastern / 02:00 BST / 11:00 AEST (Tuesday)
Watch it: http://live.playstation.com/

Kojima could make an appearance here, but we doubt his new studio has much to show yet. No Man's Sky might show up, but it was only just delayed to August, so it's right around the corner anyway. Expect some PlayStation exclusives, of course, but there could be some PC relevant surprises. We're hoping Rockstar comes by with something big to announce.

Tuesday
Square Enix
11:45AM Pacific / 2:45PM Eastern / 19:45 BST / 04:45 AEST (Wednesday)
Watch it: YouTube | Twitch

Starting Tuesday, Square Enix will be livestreaming tons of stuff all the way through to Thursday. They've published a lineup, which includes the expected smattering of Deus Ex, Hitman, and Final Fantasy stuff. Square Enix will also be dropping by The PC Gaming show.

Thanks to @Eredin we know have the scheduled

I just want Wildlands info.

- Customization of our operator. PLEASE let it be more in-depth than Division's piece of shit character creator. I like Division but MY GOD the customization of your character at the beginning is BALLS

- How seamless is the transition from roaming single player to roaming with friends?

- On avg how much is there to do that isn't main missions (please don't bloat it with a bunch of collection shit Ubi, I know that's asking a lot considering how it went from Templar Flags in AC1, to feathers in AC2, to fucking songs, feathers, and god knows what else in Black Flag).

2018 at earliest I bet.

[Total Immortal]

E3 is next week right?

What I want:

-info on the new Zelda game (which I know we'll be getting)

-Anything on The Last Guardian

-Pokémon Sun/Moon footage

-PERSONA 5 U.S. release date

-info on Akiba's Beat (unlikely since it was just announced)

I know I'm forgetting something else

 

[Ashton]

I'm convinced the last guardian is the new half life 3

 

[Total Immortal]

I'm convinced the last guardian is the new half life 3

Given how small the team making it is I'd be ok with a 2017 release. Any later and my heart will break all over again. It took a couple years to piece it back together after the last teaser footage which was when the Ico/SotC collection came out on PS3.

 

[Blayt7hh]

I'm convinced the last guardian is the new half life 3

Or... the new Duke Nukem Forever

[Losfer Words]

Skyrim remaster on consoles with mod support is being reported. Would buy.

Read this morning that the Persona 5 US release will be Feb 2017. Was hoping for holiday 2016, but it's not releasing until Sep 2016 in Japan, and that's not a ton of time for the US translation.

I just can't get passed opossum bird thing

UPDATE: Since this post, Shinobi has since added further color to his comments regarding Mass Effect Andromeda's reveal at E3 2016. He said, "You definitely won't get that. In fact, 'blowout' is much too strong a word I think. It'll be real good stuff, but I think everyone should temper themselves and not expect a deep dive Fallout or even Horizon style. I know that's different than what I insinuated before but, well yea."

ORIGINAL STORY: E3 has been home to some of the most important moments in our industry's history and this year doesn't sound like it'll be any different. Gamers will no doubt remember the Fallout 4 blowout Bethesda put on display last year, and for those who are interested in Mass Effect Andromeda, its reveal will apparently be in the same vein.

EA has been a bit silent as to what exactly they are going to reveal at E3 2016 for Mass Effect Andromeda, but it seems as though we now have a sneak peek. Shinobi602, who is a well-known and credible insider that has revealed reliable information about games in the past, teased what gamers can expect when it comes to Mass Effect Andromeda showing up at E3 2016 this weekend.

"I don't want to jump back to Mass Effect [Andromeda], but actually concerning that, I was told by someone close to BioWare that after the N7 trailer, cause if you noticed Andromeda was first revealed in 2015 with that trailer and then in November they had that one minute long N7 teaser trailer with the ship and stuff.

"After that I was told they're going completely dark until E3 because I was literally told 'we're going to approach it Fallout 4-style.' Literally. It's smart too because you don't want to keep stringing people along for years," Shinobi told HAM Radio via MrMattyPlays.

im not sure to be honest

This is my biggest problem with cinematic trailers for new IPs. Like, Wildlands first trailer you get what the game is about and are opened to it being open world/differing ways to tackle missions.

Hell, even the original Mirror's Edge trailer you KIND of get a clue for what you're playing. That game though... all I see is an excess of purple in a Volition/Deep Silver game and the Fleur behind the character at the end which is a pretty obvious Saint's Row reference.

Count me as REALLY confused what's going on
